The current plan to integrate ceph is via cinderlib integration[1]
(currently in tech preview mode) because we still have no packaging
ready, there are some manual installation steps required, but there is
no need to install and configure openstack/cinder

a vanilla installation will work with cinderlib

I haven't tried it, but should be possible

>3. Is there any monitoring/management of Ceph from within oVirt? (Guessing no?)
No, cinderlib is storage agnostic

Most features (starting/stopping/snapshots/live migration)  are
working, but not all are fully tested (specifically snapshots)

>5. Is making Ceph a first-class citizen (like Gluster) on oVirt on the roadmap?
Not at the moment, maybe once cinderlib integration matures and we
have more feedback and users for the feature
